    This case series report outlines possible cranio-maxillofacial deformation consequences associated with ectodermal dysplasia (ED) and embryonic malformations, including dental agenesis. Also described are the oral aspects and rehabilitation. A total of 14 ED patients (7 males and 7 females, aged 5-45 years) underwent clinical examination before assessment and treatment. Lateral cephalometric radiography, Steiner's analysis, and respiratory capacity tests were performed. Most of the patients had sparse or absent hair, a short face with an unusual facial concavity, a maxillary retrusion, and a relative mandible protrusion. Depending on age and orthopedic abnormalities, patients were treated with prosthodontic and orthodontic approaches or implant treatment. Therapists should take a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach with these patients to improve their dental, masticatory, growth, and orthognathic conditions, as well as esthetic appearance.

Materials and Methods: A questionnaire about the laterality of orthodontists and their discomfort was preparedand distributed to our orthodontic society members. 173 questionnaires were investigated.Results: Fifteen of the participants were left-handed individuals. Of all the 15 samples, only 1 practitioner hadbeen educated with left hand manipulation while studying dentistry. One of the 7 private practioners preferredleft-handed chair for his clinic. Regarding left-handed participants working with right-sided chair, 4 of themthought this situation depresses their treatment quality and 9 of them refused. Most of the left-handedparticipants complaint about the university education. Conclusions: Left-handed orthodontists afford to adapt themselves to a right-handed world. They could to beeducated on left-handed dental chairs to display a more skillful clinical performance.
